What I fail to understand here, is how NovaQuark can tell players testers who had their constructs "stolen" from them on account of faulty RDMS be given no action, only to turn around and permanently ban players testers for taking advantage of faulty RDMS on NovaQuarks own constructs.

 

It was also laid out a few days ago to that theft as a result of bad RDMS will not be actioned on by NovaQuark.

 

Did people's orders at the marketplace get interrupted, yes. 

Did a marketplace get destroyed by some players testers, yes. 

Did stuff get stolen and sold for profit, yes. 

Did some people get inconvenienced, yes.

 

 

THIS.

Wow, this is a shit show. You specifically set the rules;

"RDMS permissions and settings are the sole discretion of each player. We advise you take the time to get to know and understand the system and be cautious when making a construct or element usable by unknown players, including the use of your friends list. Not every player has your best interest at heart. We can not get involved with permission based theft, whether as an individual or an organization."

And then ban hammer because they followed them to the letter. Aphelia is an NPC. Even if you consider it NQ/Aphelia YOU LITERALLY SAY "We can not get involved with permission based theft, whether as an individual or an organization." It was done WITHOUT using an exploit! This is your FAILURE of a permission system swatting you in the face. You set the rules so everyone can get robbed blind if they make one little mistake in the perms. YOU COULDN'T EVEN COPY AND PASTE A MARKET WITHOUT MESSING UP THE PERMISSIONS! 

 

Your organization got RDMS raided. The PLAYER market got raided because of a REALLY bad design. As long as they did not use an exploit, they should not be banned. If the ban holds then refund every single RDMS raid. EVERY SINGLE ONE. Remove the entire ability for anyone to permission theft. If NQ cant set your own permission system correctly, its obviously a f'in floppy mess.

 

Maybe make a NEW rule its a perma ban for anyone in any way shape or form take market assets without buying/selling as intended. Along with no messing with NPC/Aphelia/NQ/SSPolice structures/assets.

Just like you did MANY other issues WHERE EXPLOITS WERE USED, learn and set rules, but let them go free.
